Enjoy some snow pics from our recent snowstorm: the one on the right was before the storm, the two on the left during the storm.

    Not just a sudden explosion in bird population, but a sudden change in the sky too! Makes one mindful of how quickly things can change, doesn’t it?

    Makes me think of Alfred Hitchcock.

  11. Marc says:

    I definitely prefer the top one!

  12. Are the birds starlings by any chance? There sure are a LOT of them. I wonder what they eat. I wouldn’t think there’d be many bugs in NJ this time of year. ;-)

    My favorite kind of sky. A sky with birds in it.

  15. The birds certainly showed up en masse. The film THE BIRDS came to mind for me, too!
    B&W snow pics are very nice also.

  16. The shape of the wing looks like a gull, but I don’t know what kind. Beautiful photos though..

  17. kallen305 says:

    Love the photos of the birds. The tree shots are great too.

    I love the layout of your blog!

  18. Robin says:

    That’s a whole lot of birds.

    I particularly like that last tree shot – it’s got great perspective and the silhouetting works really well.

  19. soulbrush says:

    oh yes i do like your snowy trees too, what a contrast to the other pics. hugs.

  20. Louise says:

    You snowy trees photos are terrific! I think the recipe in the next post looks wonderful,too!

  21. Jew Wishes says:

    Thank you for sharing these wonderful photos! I love the sky through the trees.

  22. Quietpaths says:

    That is a sky full of birds! Right now we have Bohemian Waxwings in those numbers. Great sky.

  23. wow, those are a lot of birds, you can even do that “what do you see” for this picture. I see all kinds of shapes in the birds.

    and I always liked how snow looks on the trees
